This is an astonishingly ignorant statement.There are no binary questions in a democracy. Binary questions dont exist.
You are claiming that in the US, during a democratic election, will you vote for Biden or trump, is NOT a binary question?
This is an astonishingly ignorant statement.There are no binary questions in a democracy. Binary questions dont exist.
It was LaRue's question and you answered. It is too late for you to claim it is off topic. You should have claimed it then instead of answering it.This is again an off topic post. Stay on topic. I am not here to validate someone else's irrelevant points about gay rights in a thread about student protests against Israel's genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza.
More blatant hypocrisy.I am no one to accept or not accept anything regarding American political realities as I am not an American citizen and have no influence over their policies. American CITIZENS OTOH are choosing to protest their govt. and their institutions and are demanding changes. That is their right. Similarly, we protest our govt. and our institutions and demand changes, which is our right.
Any other choices are too trivial to be considered realistic.That is astonishingly uninformed.
Biden and Trump may be frontrunners, but you have RFK Jr., and Cornel West running as independents.
It is a pathetic joke that they talk about holocaust remembrance while committing genocide against Palestine. 35000 killed including 15000 children. The infrastructure bombed into mounds of rubble. Blocking aid and killing journalists and aid workers. To say "never again" while committing these atrocities is the ultimate racist hypocrasy
My post dealt with the binary question discussion that you and JlaR were engaged in. How could it be off topic. You can't even keep track of what discussions you are engaged in.It was your post that I called off-topic, which was referring to Oracle's post, not Larue's. You can't even keep track of what you are saying anymore. This is once again an off topic post.
We are talking about choices, not opinions. They are not the same.There are never binary choices in a democracy because there are a multitude of opinions on any topic.
TBH, I don't care who your choice is or what your opinion is. The point is that the American choice, for all intents and purposes, is a binary one. Any you just agreed that they have the choice.Regardless they are choices available for the voter.
They are NOT joking when they say "Never again". Do you think that they were joking or were they "deadly" serious?It is a pathetic joke that they talk about holocaust remembrance while committing genocide against Palestine.
That is astonishingly uninformed.
does night follow day , yes or no ?There are no binary questions in a democracy. Binary questions dont exist.
you confuse rights with valueThere are no binary questions in a democracy. Binary questions dont exist. There are a multitude of opinions, on any topic, always. Protests are also a fundamental democratic tool.
To answer your question, the value of a protestor, remains the same whether or not they are informed. Therefore A and B, have the exact same value and how informed they are, has no bearing on their value, in a democracy.
When you go to vote, you are not questioned whether or not you know about the issues. You may or you may not. But you get one vote the same as everyone else.
When one goes to a protest, their presence counts for exactly the same as someone else whether or not their reasons align with the original reason for which the protest was called for. Whatever the reasons, they are all valid reasons for one to be there.
Now if that is not a straight answer, then what is?
high school test questions requiring selecting A or B as the correct answer occur all the time in a democracyThere are no binary questions in a democracy. Binary questions dont exist. There are a multitude of opinions, on any topic, always. Protests are also a fundamental democratic tool.

uninformed protestors have this habit of following each other while vocalizing "Baaa",Sheep have this habit of following each other while vocalizing "Baaa", because only a sheep can recognize another sheep.
I expected something better from you instead of a juvenile response lolSheep have this habit of following each other while vocalizing "Baaa", because only a sheep can recognize another sheep.
What should be scary for you is the knowledge that nobody under 30 backs zionism and now its just really old people supporting it.Even scarier, some may become the leaders of the future.
You mean the way you can't even understand the basic science of climate change yet keep protesting it?uninformed protestors have this habit of following each other while vocalizing "Baaa",
we can recognise an uninformed protestor if they answer the question, 'what are you protesting' with' "speak to the organizer "
Nobody expected that to mean 'never again to us, we'll do it to someone else first'.They are NOT joking when they say "Never again". Do you think that they were joking or were they "deadly" serious?
So, with Al-Jizz being banned in Saudi Arabia, you are now claiming that SA is a Zionist state. Looney Tunes.What should be scary for you is the knowledge that nobody under 30 backs zionism and now its just really old people supporting it.
No wonder zionist try to shut down the free press so often.
what is the value of a "wrong" view ?I did not say Shack's views as worthless. I said they were uninformed because he was wrong.
no noThat has nothing to do with democracies or political opinions. Your example is both inappropriate and fails a sanity check.
a plain, blunt and all encompassing statementThere are no binary questions in a democracy.
